This spring, Miami Beach will host a world-class spectacle unlike anything the city has seen before. From April 17–19, 2025, the Global Champions Arabians Tour (GCAT)—the world’s premier Arabian horse championship series—will make its highly anticipated debut on the sands of South Beach.
More than just a sporting event, the Global Champions Arabians Tour Miami Beach presented by Qatar Airways is a celebration of Arabian culture, elegance, and athleticism. For three days, the shoreline will be transformed into a custom-built equestrian arena where the world’s most elite Arabian horses and their expert handlers will compete for championship titles and crucial points in the GCAT season standings.
A Landmark Moment for Miami and the Americas Circuit
Following the Tour’s successful season opener in Scottsdale, Arizona, the Miami Beach stop represents a pivotal expansion of GCAT into the Americas. It will precede additional stages in São Paulo, Brandon (Manitoba), Las Vegas, and culminate at the World Arabian Horse Championship Supreme in Doha, Qatar.
At stake: over $2.7 million in prize money, one of the largest purses in Arabian horse competition history. The horses will be judged on specific criteria such as type, head and neck, body, legs, and movement—each performance offering a breathtaking display of power, elegance, and precision.
Immersive Cultural and Lifestyle Experience
What truly sets this event apart is the fusion of high-level sport with Miami’s signature lifestyle. The event has been meticulously designed to reflect the vibrancy and glamour of the city.
Guests will be welcomed into a dynamic environment that includes:
-
A VIP hospitality experience curated by Major Food Group, featuring menus from acclaimed restaurants including ZZ’s, Carbone, and Sadelle’s
-
A vibrant interactive village with food, beverage, and retail offerings inspired by Miami’s diverse cultural heritage
-
World-class entertainment and curated programming designed to celebrate both local and international artistry
“This is more than just a championship—it’s a cultural celebration,” said Faleh Al Nasr, Chairman of the Global Champions Arabians Tour. “Miami, with its global appeal and love for elite events, is the perfect stage to showcase the artistry and magnificence of Arabian horses. With its accessibility to the Middle East, it also strengthens cultural connections across continents.”
A Showcase of Beauty, Tradition, and Excellence
From the moment guests arrive, they’ll be immersed in an experience that blends tradition with innovation. The event space will echo the city’s architectural flair with bold Art Deco design elements and vivid aesthetics. Spectators will not only witness top-tier competition but also gain insight into the rich heritage of Arabian horse breeding and presentation—an art form that dates back thousands of years.
